Restaurant
New York Grill
パークハイアット東京, 52階, 3-chōme-7-1-2 Nishishinjuku, Shinjuku City, Tokyo 163-1055
Fifty-second-floor steak and jazz room whose adjoining bar starred in a famous film about two strangers adrift in Tokyo.
This guide to New York Grill in Tokyo starts with the elevator doors opening fifty-two floors up, the view that convinced director Sofia Coppola to set much of Lost in Translation here in 2003, with Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson at the bar beside you. You'll hear about the hotel's 1994 opening as the first Park Hyatt in Asia, architect Kenzo Tange's triangular tower, and the murals meant to ease homesick Americans. Listen for the jazz trio still playing most nights.
